FOLD­ABLE KAYAK

ORU Kayak has the per­fect so­lu­tion for cruis­ers with lim­ited stor­age and dreams of ex­plor­ing shal­lower wa­ters while on the hook. The 12ft Beach LT kayak folds down into a small brief­case that’s easy to stow and weighs just 26lb, mak­ing it the com­pany’s light­est model yet. New buckle straps also make assem­bly eas­ier than ever (it now takes just three min­utes) and the ves­sel’s large cock­pit provdes plenty of space for trans­port­ing gear, kids or pets. A first-ever tan­dem kayak is also in the works. $1,299. ORU Kayak, orukayak.com
